The Milani Bella Eyes Gel Powder Eyeshadow in Bella Ivory (01) is an ivory with a "satin matte" finish.

Milani Bella Ivory Bella Eyes Gel Powder Eyeshadow

The Bella Eyes Shadows come in a gold compact with a clear lid, similar to the their Baked Blushes. In the center of the shadow is pushed in, giving the surface of the shadow an uneven shape. Even though these are called "Gel Powder Eye Shadows" they do not have a squishy or plush feel at all. I imagined them feeling like the Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blushes, but, they feel exactly like any other powder shadow. Ivory is a bit on the sheer side, but it does have nice pigmentation. I was under the impression that this shadow would be pretty matte, but it does have tiny pieces of glitter. The glitter isn't super noticeable, but I personally would not use this shade as a brow highlight because of it.
